Chapter 2268 - 2277: The Person You Went to See Was Xi Zelie?

Chapter 2268: Chapter 2277: The Person You Went to See Was Xi Zelie?

Chi Enen’s heart skipped two beats, an instinct like a small animal warning her that he was issuing a warning!

A warning not to continue.

If she continued, he might lose control of his temper.

Chi Enen knew this man too well; she pressed her lips together. Compared to seeing him suppress himself like this, pretending to be calm and mature, she preferred to see his true self, even if it came with an emotional outburst.

"Yes."

Li Beijue’s eyes seemed to flash with lightning, his entire demeanor suddenly shifting from restrained to a cold impending storm. "Are you sure?"

"I’m sure."

Just after Chi Enen spoke, her chin was grabbed, followed by his explosive interrogation in her ear, "Whose call did you receive? Which friend? Why didn’t you answer my call then? Why was the mobile phone out of service area? Why did Quan Dongting lie? Why didn’t you call me back immediately after the signal was restored?"

"Didn’t you ask me to ask? Chi Enen."

"Speak."

Chi Enen had imagined his eruptions, but never thought he’d be so angry. His handsome face was livid, and even his temple throbbed incessantly.

"Which friend? What friend is so important that you had arrived at the Li Headquarters doorstep yet walked away? Don’t tell me it’s Lin Anxin! Lin Anxin is not in Country W today; she went for an interview."

Nor Kim Zhixuan, Qin Nan.

Kim Zhixuan is not in Country W; she returned to Rainy City with Huo Leiting.

As for Qin Nan, he just boarded a flight today; during those few hours she disappeared, Qin Nan should have been on the airplane.

Unless this woman turned into Superman, she couldn’t be with Qin Nan.

So, who is the friend she mentioned?

Li Beijue already had an answer in his heart; precisely because of this vague suspicion, the nameless fire in his chest couldn’t be suppressed and was about to erupt.

He had already promised Quan Dongting to try his best to control himself. Yet this woman insists on courting death, insisting on discussing this with him.

Li Beijue tightens his grip on her wrist, almost squeezing Chi Enen’s wrist bone to the point of breaking, gritting his teeth and saying, "Is Xi Zelie the person you went to see?"

Only Xi Zelie could cause her not to return his calls immediately after seeing his missed call.

Only Xi Zelie would cause Quan Dongting to warn him, telling him to control his emotions and not to harm Chi Enen for any reason.

He was clearly desperately trying to ignore the obvious answer, yet why does she keep pressing him!

Does she think that by being with Xi Zelie, he can generously believe that she’s merely hanging out with a friend?

Not to mention he’s already aware they had a childhood engagement, given Xi Zelie’s affection for her, and having confessed to her before, he can’t be magnanimous!

Not killing that man is already the greatest rationality and magnanimity in his life!

"Is it Xi Zelie?" Rationality told him to stop asking, but Chi Enen had already opened Pandora’s box, releasing the devil.

Chi Enen’s wrist was painfully gripped, her breathing became slightly heavier, but she remained calm and softly said, "Yes."

Before the man’s eruption, she quickly added, "I received a call from his bodyguard saying his condition was very poor, and they begged me to go see him. I harbor no ulterior motives; I like you, it’s evident since our marriage. My going was solely because Xi Zelie really helped me a lot. I won’t even mention the help he gave me, but he saved Nuonuo, and not just once. I can’t simply pretend these things never happened, right?"
